Following the initial backing Yesterday morning, from our one contact in the gaming industry, we then picked up new further backing from the folks at Tripwire Interactive, an older, established indie studio that has been following our team and progress for a while. They were impressed by the work we have done and stepped forward to show support for our new indie studio, Storm Isle Productions by kicking in backing to our kickstarter, helping push us over $9,000.

We are still active although we did not make the kickstarter goal we are continuing development just more slowly, We have put up a paypal donation campaign on our site to help generate a trickle of development funds coming in. Through public donations so far we have raised some funds and gotten the first of the new wind units concepts done of the new wind archer redesign done up as we are working on other wind units.

The team has also been hard at work working on new content and also updating effects for the world map, to this end the team has been working on lighting adjustments and adding in new visual effects to bring world maps alive! the team has put out a new short video clip showing these new game effects and can be seen at the below link.

Storm Isle Productions DOTS RTS indiegogo campaign today got a big boost in backing with a pledge of 1k support from Alan Wilson from Tripwire interactive in a show of support for our project. Tripwire Interactive are the makers of the killing floor games and Rising Storm Red Orchestra.
